From e5d9d3cc52598c68fc91903a5ca5fd43c7d1cf21 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joey Hess Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2009 16:31:58 -0400 Subject: add rcs/cvs --- doc/plugins/contrib/cvs.mdwn | 33 --------------------------------- 1 file changed, 33 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 doc/plugins/contrib/cvs.mdwn (limited to 'doc/plugins/contrib/cvs.mdwn') diff --git a/doc/plugins/contrib/cvs.mdwn b/doc/plugins/contrib/cvs.mdwn deleted file mode 100644 index b75929139..000000000 --- a/doc/plugins/contrib/cvs.mdwn +++ /dev/null @@ -1,33 +0,0 @@ -[[!template id=plugin name=cvs core=0 author="[[schmonz]]"]] - -[[!template id=gitbranch branch=schmonz author="[[schmonz]]"]] - -This plugin allows ikiwiki to use [[!wikipedia desc="CVS" Concurrent Versions System]] as an [[rcs]]. - -### Usage -7.

Here's a good general-purpose one: - - cvs -q - checkout -P - update -dP - diff -u - rdiff -u - -### Implementation details -* `cvs.pm` started life as a copy of [[3.14159|news/version_3.14159]]'s `svn.pm`. -* `IkiWiki.pm:wiki_file_prune_regexps` avoids copying CVS metadata -into `$DESTDIR`. -* [[ikiwiki-makerepo]]: - * creates a repository, - * imports `$SRCDIR` into top-level module `ikiwiki` (vendor tag IKIWIKI, release tag PRE_CVS), - * configures the post-commit hook in `CVSROOT/loginfo`. -* CVS multi-directory commits happen separately; the post-commit hook sees only the first directory's changes in time for [[recentchanges|plugins/recentchanges]]. The next run of `ikiwiki --setup` will correctly re-render such a recentchanges entry. It should be possible to solve this problem with NetBSD's `commit_prep` and `log_accum` scripts (see below). - -### To do -* Instead of resource-intensively scraping changesets with `cvsps`, have `ikiwiki-makerepo` set up NetBSD-like `log_accum` and `commit_prep` scripts that coalesce and keep records of commits. `cvsps` can be used as a fallback for repositories without such records. -* Perhaps prevent web edits from attempting to create `.../CVS/foo.mdwn` (and `.../cvs/foo.mdwn` on case-insensitive filesystems); thanks to the CVS metadata directory, the attempt will fail anyway (and much more confusingly) if we don't. -- cgit v1.2.3
